Best-selling Indian-American novelist Thrity Umrigar tells stories about conflicts between cultures and their impact at the most basic level, relationships between individuals. Her second novel, 2006’s The Space Between Us, really put her on the map when it was a finalist for the PEN/Beyond Margins Award. She is now a Professor of English at Case Western Reserve University and a northeast Ohio resident. And she’s just published a new book titled Honor, which explores the territory that absorbs her most: interpersonal relationships and the cultural differences that divide people.
She’ll be the guest of the Hudson Library & Historical Society for a virtual conversation with Kabit Bhatia, a reporter/producer at Kent public radio station WKSU. The program is free but registration is required. Go here. Copies of Honor will be available for purchase through Hudson’s Learned Owl Book Shop.
